Okay, some from at I saw of the Direct, the following is Mario Kart 8
- Start with the already very good MK7
- Add a new anti-gravity mechanic that introduces new routes per track and unique rules while not racing traditionally
- Expansion of the MK7 customizable karts, now with Wii's Bikes and new ATV's, which appear distinct yet roughly balanced
- A full 30 characters, even though a bunch of them are koopalings and babies. It's not as if babies were absent from previous games.
- Three/Four new items, none of which appear either weak or OP, and one of which nerfs the overpowered blue shell
- Plenty of online functionality with plenty of modes and voice chat, plus tournament hosting
- Boos aren't playable, but Ghosts can be raced
- Video footage editing and sharing, including YouTube uploads!
- Nice presentation in HD and with fitting tunes
- Starting boosts still exist
- I get NSMBU for free
- Bowser's Castle has a giant mechanical Bowser statue made of lava that punches you
- Yoshi is a Bike and a ploayable character, meaning you can have Yoshi riding Yoshi
Game of the Year, all years
